I think there are several factors that have made Canada worse- Cold weather - people are inside - Covid spreads easier in close quarters, DR- people are outside. Most of Canada's deaths have been people over 70 years old. Canada had more old people per capita than the DR. Canada's death rate and infection rate is 1/4th of it's neighbour to the south. Another thing is Canada's statistics are far more accurate.
Whatever the explanation is, I think things will get worse for both - maybe not in severity of cases, but in how the governments will react. I give it 50/50 odds that restrictions and a curfew are coming back.
I find it funny that you pick and choose which numbers you want to believe.I find it funny you believe in DR reportingNumbers…
Come on dude, are you clairvoyant or have compiled your own data? Or, more likely, just popping off?I find it funny you believe in DR reporting
It isn't Canada's fault. The virus escaped from WIV in China which has the blame, and the Omicron variant is as contagious as the measles. they say. . Cloth facemasks are now practically useless. No vaccination kills it.
Shhh don’t ruin the surprise for them…I hear jet blue engines starting ..CoViD cases in the DR

At least DR doesn't pay hospitals extra for Covid admissions and even more for recording Covid deaths.You mr conspiracy theorist himself believes DR numbers
What does this have to do with anything posted on this thread or anywhere else?????????????
And you throw it out and get a new one each and every time you go out and return home, correct? Worn correctly by really making it very tight to your face until it bruises your skin? If not, it is not that effective either. Only a genuine N95 mask seems to be "good enough" for Omicron.Emphasis on "cloth".
What is your facial covering of choice?
I'm wearing the medical masks (Humask), manufactured right here in Quebec.
They are the ones being handed out by all the clinics, the hospitals and the vaccination centers.
I figured if anybody is going to provide a good performer, they will.
I tie a knot in the ear loops to give a tighter fit.
I mean...who doesn't love a tighter fit?

High-risk Canadians now advised to wear medical face masks: PHAC
The Public Health Agency of Canada is now recommending those at risk of higher exposure and more severe disease outcomes from COVID-19 wear a medical face mask.www.ctvnews.ca
No actually.
I wear whatever is available when I am required to. The style here is mostly a surgical mask like you see dentists wear so they don't spit on you, and there seem to be a few N95's with exit valves, probably fake inferior Chinese made, that are also sold. Many people also were some type of now useless cloth masks.
Everyone is way undercounting the number of people that get CV19. It is easier to keep control that way.
Curious, how would you know even the most basic properties of the sinovac components unless you opened it up in your lab, ran it through your trusty HPLC and NMR. Who are you relying on here to verify what exactly is Sinovac chemically/molecularly?
